Nope. No we don't need any more Rolex nicknames.

I've got a great one, Black GMT!!! Easy to remember, flow off the tongue easily. What's not to like.

Dude it was released circa 2006 if it was going to get a moniker it would have one by now.

GMTIIC could mean 8-10+ different models if you're including gold and TT versions.

In SS alone there LN, BLNR, BLRO, VTNR.

So I don't think that's the way to go.

I never really cared either way about nick names, but from time to time enjoy it and even use them. After all, even ADs know what the "batman" is better than a BLNR.

That said, between all the bezel options and 126 vs 116 variations, I actually think we NEED to come back to earth here and just call this watch a 116710LN.

Done.

Poor guy has been waiting 7 years for a nickname. Probably checking the thread daily.

I think "Fred" is an appropriate, all purpose name.
